What turntables do you use? Pictures would be nice as well :-)

Kuzma XL2 & Stabi R

That Stabi R looks real nice in the wood plinth. That's from Kuzma I believe.

 

[SOS]

Yes both are from Kuzma.

 

[Keyplayer]

I also use a Stabi R Wood.

Keyplayer what clamp is that? Did you try the kuzma clamp? Also have you tried different ac cords? They do make a difference.

 

[Keyplayer]

This is the Kuzma Ebony Clamp.
I only try the small Kuzma Brass clamp.
The ebony is better! You can use it from both sides and both sounds a bit different.

For Power I use a sheeld power cord with an Omtec Power Controller in front.

OMTEC POWER CONTROLLER PC-9001 mains current regulator mains filter, HS249

Here you can get the OMTEC POWER CONTROLLER PC-9001 mains current regulator, mains filter, mains balancer.

That Kuzma ebony clamp now retails at $1866 in the USA. The "standard" Kuzma Stabi R clamp retails at $525. (Although the Stabi R does not ship with a clamp it's an option).

VPI Aries 1 with SOTA motor (retrofitted into VPI Motor Pod) and SOTA PSU and Speed Controller- and VPI Fatboy Unipivot. Upgraded from a tricked out Thorens TD124 a year ago and continue to be thrilled.

@Keyplayer. The Kuzma drives feature a fantastic wooden design. These plinths are Wooden Art. Hard to find a matching Phonostage.

The AS Phonolab with RECOMPIZER is a perfect match with its reduced form. Here you can see two Sorane tonearms on the KUZMA.

My newly acquired Verdier La Platine. The arm board and pillar were made for me by Steve at Magna Audio in the UK. The arm is an SME312S and the cart is a London Reference

And the record clamp is Triangle Art ! Very cool !

 

[jazzdude99]

Thx Lagonda - actually the clamp is ebony or African Blackwood - I’m not sure who made it.

 

[bazelio]

Does anyone else use a Roadrunner tach? Here's my Stabi M, nominal for about a minute.

Now, with stylus down during playback, I observe approximately +/- 0.003 RPM excursions. I'd be curious to see how the yuge platter belt driven tables compare.

it is a famous shun mook clamp made from gabon ebony. an authentic shun mook is most probably the best sounding clamp with a 6K price tag and this one looks authentic. I haven't heard any clamp sounding close or better than a shun mook.

Mine isn’t shun Mook, it’s simply a record weight- no locking mechanism - made by a wood turner.

I guess my eyes are as bad as my ears, it looked like shiny metal too me !
